Why does the knight feel dishonored when the old woman wants to marry him?

English

The correct answer is D. because he thinks the old woman is too old and ugly.

Indeed, in Chaucer’s the Wife of Bath’s Tale, is the story of an Arthurian knight that raped a young woman and was sentenced to death.  Queen Guinevere convinces King Arthur to let her choose a different punishment. The Knife has to find the answer to the question of what women most want. The knife interrogates many different women but gets many different answers. Finally, he meets an old woman who agrees to tell him if he promises to do what she will later ask of him. She provides the knight with the answer: what women most want is to rule their husbands.

In exchange she asks him to marry her and he is repulsed by her old age and ugliness.

You could write this essay in a couple different ways. The point is to take an argumentative stance and then provide research for your stance.

These are some ways you could go, based on your opinion:

a) that subliminal messages are picked up by our senses, meaning they are real and do affect behavior

b) that subliminal messages are not picked up by our senses and do not affect behavior

If you're not sure which stance to take, just do some general googling of subliminal messages and whether they're real & affect behavior.

Once you find your position, start researching specifically for that. Remember that this is argumentative- you're taking a position- so you want to have real facts as support. Use reputable sites (look for .edu, .org, .gov instead of .com).

Craft your thesis, which is the main claim you're making. This will go in the introduction of your essay.

A basic thesis may go like:

Subliminal messages are/are not real, and they have/do not have an effect on behavior. (You would pick between belief or nonbelief).

Once you have your thesis, you can start organizing your information around it and write the essay!

Hello there!

Answer:

The words <em>"France, Alsace, France, Alsace"</em> represent the pure patriotic feeling of the Monsieur Hamel for France. Therefore, the young little student Franz relates the papers to these words with flags which may represent their freedom.

Explanation:

The short story <em>"The Last Class: The Story of a Little Alsatian"</em> was written by Alphonse Daudet, showing the meaning of patriotism and freedom. This story was set during the Franco-Prussian war, which tells the story of the German takeover of Alsace in France during WW1.

It narrates the story of an Alsatian boy named Franz, who doesn't understand his teacher's patriotism. During the class, the teacher announces that Berlin has banned French from schools, so he tries to explain the importance of the French language in the world.

Then, Monsieur Hamel asks them an assignment with these words (France, Alsace, France, Alsace) and there is where he starts to show his patriotism.

What is the value of literature?
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

Explanation:

Reading literature enables us to see the world through the eyes of others. It trains the mind to be flexible, to comprehend other points of view—to set aside one's personal perspectives to see life through the eyes of someone who is of another age, class, or race.
